Tulipa 'Golden Nizza'
Jim McKenney (Sun, 20 Nov 2011 15:23:49 PST)

Thanks, Russell, not only for the response but especially for the link.  I'll put that to good use.

In looking at that site, I noticed that (as expected) many famous old tulips are not listed. I assume they are extinct. However, I did notice a couple of famous old names which I have not seen on a commercial list for decades (in one case) or ever  (in another case).  If this means that these varieties still exist, I would very much like to acquire them.

The cultivars in question are 'Louis XIV' and 'Goldfinch'.

Can anyone supply a lead? Rimmer, are you out there?

Your assumption appears to be correct, Jim:
